@meaningfulgigs Toni is such an incredible person and designer. I’m impressed with his work in the community of design, bringing newer designers up to speed with the newest tools and skills ✊🏼
Super excited to be joining the inaugural @beondeck Community Builders Fellowship! 😍 Can't wait to meet everyone and support the growth of our communities!
For those who are wondering why so much attention has been focused on the response of the Capitol Police to the Trump-inspired riots, here’s a data-driven article that provides some useful frame of reference.

This is ABSURD! How can law enforcement endorse UNQUALIFIED ARMED CIVILIANS to patrol and assist! No wonder we see so many of these terrorist groups!! Time is running out. Get out there and VOTE for leaders who would put a stop to this madness!
We must continue to remind ourselves that it is not too much to ask for a better and safer Nigeria. An enabling society where the Nigerian youths can maximize their potentials, without fear or intimidation!! It is not too much!!! #EndSARS#EndPoliceBrutality#EndImpunity
Beautiful representation of the mess we’re in. Photographer Eric Retterbush used an archaic process to take photos of health workers during the pandemic - The Washington Post https://t.co/dT8ZiJGjjF
I am the protestor named here who may face life in prison for allegedly buying paint. My co-defendants are facing the same charges as me for similarly low-level allegations.
This is political repression — the state wants to silence dissent. Don’t let them. Be loud.
@DCPoliceDept Why doesn’t the city address the reason there are so many illegal firearms by providing more services to the communities that need to use firearms to sustain basic necessities like access to jobs to pay for food, housing, medical care?
DC invests more in policing Black residents than it invests in housing, non-coercive mental health care and interventions, youth programs, and any employment program combined. #DefundDCpolice
An absolutely great breakdown from New Republic's @libbycwatson of @MayorBowser's BLM stunt- from her continually increasing the MPD budget to overseeing stop-and-frisk to the killings of #DQuanYoung and #MarqueeseAlston, to trapping protesters on Swann St

People don’t want policing, people want safety. We are - in real time - seeing people separate the two. Organizers have been laying the groundwork for this moment, this did not come out of nowhere.
That is why the #DefundPolice demand is gaining traction.

On 6/12/18 Kenithia lost her son Marqueese Alston,he was shot 15 times & killed by the @DCPoliceDept She has been pleading with @MayorBowser for officer names, badge numbers, and body cam footage since his death & has received nothing. https://t.co/v3mS0yN0KE
DC spends over $500M on policing while the houseless population grows rapidly. DC is trying to build a new jail,the current jail is 89% Black.
We are fighting to #DivestfromMPD and Invest in Black futures, Public Health and our Communities. #DefundMPD https://t.co/aReSipfEHf
